Oh, treading on dangerous ground with this one. I'm not the most accomplished fountain of knowledge when it comes to the chirpy musical thrill of pop-punk but i've been grabbed my the gonads with this little sucker.
Occasionally a paradoxical genre of sorts, walking the line of cheesy and cringing - I believe i stand corrected with Chaos Days' first four track e.p. The Uckfield/ Brighton/General South coast band have created something of an eponymous record with this well produced recital of young love's comical angst.
From the vivacious hop-stomp of the prostitute inspired scuzzy-melodic squeeze of "I'm Yours" to the prodigal "Under the weather", it demonstrates some seriously metaphorically adapted and well polished song writing. The Hardcore influences are there, if not so obvious, and so are the more obvious ones, yet Chaos Days have managed to cook up their very own individual aura of happy-yet-fuck-you pop punk.
